Rather than the pull the goalie, I think teams would be better off leaving him in, playing with 4 up front and 1 D, who would pinch to make a play. You could do that for a good 3 minutes and at least have a chance to go the whole the 3 without allowing a goal.

You're entitled to believe what you want, but this is the "By the Numbers" board. Please cite some sort of statistical evidence to support your claim.
